Rustic Retreat | damascus, md

This stunning backyard transformation in Damascus, Maryland marks the second project we’ve completed for this long-time client—proof that great design and great relationships go hand-in-hand. Our team was brought in to create an inviting, cohesive outdoor living space centered around their newly installed swimming pool, and the result blends structure, nature, and function seamlessly.

We designed and installed a custom paver patio that curves gracefully around the pool’s edge, framed by natural boulder walls that define the elevation and add organic texture. Wide stone steps lead up to the home, while a natural stone fire pit provides a cozy focal point for cool evenings. Carefully selected plantings soften the hardscape and will mature into a vibrant, low-maintenance landscape. We also installed landscape lighting to extend the use of the space well into the evening, and a wildflower meadow beyond the main entertainment area brings a touch of natural beauty and pollinator-friendly color to the property. Thoughtfully built to complement both the home and the surrounding countryside, this outdoor retreat delivers on relaxation, connection, and long-term value.
